Gilbert Grain. who died at Rochester
Wednesday noon in the nth year of his
age, was born at Herkimer, on a farm.
He. early evinced great admiration for
horses, and when quite young became noted
among the farmers of the vicinity as the
best horseman of his age in the country.
Before arriving at maturity he left the farm
for New York, where he soon became
prominent as one of the most skillfu
handlers and riders of racers in the metrop-
oils. He was sought after to ride many of
the greatest racers of those days, and met
with remarkable success. He was really
at that time the Fred Archer of the Ameri-
can turf, and as he was as true as steel and
as honest as the sun he enjoyed the conf
dence and respect of turfmen generally
After several years of service in the best
stables of that time he having in the mean
and became the owner of the
place on the Troy road, known
the country over as Gil Crains." where
for years he and his estimable wife enter
tanned thousands of people, always in the
most acceptable manner His friends in
Troy were almost equal in number to those
he had in this city, and there are quite a
number who can call to mind many happy
hours passed under his hospitable roof
which was then the best known and most
popular hostelry west of the metropolis
He never lost his love for horses. and drove
and won scores of exciting races while
keeping the Troy road house. He went to
Canada in company with John Ardle and
Elijah Simmons with Telegraph, or ST.
Lawrence. afterward Mac. and came home
with big winnings. the Canadians backing
their favorites at long odds. Failing health
compelled him to retire from the active life
he had followed, and, selling the hotel. he
soon after removed to Rochester. where he
had since resided. enjoying the esteem and
respect of the many new friends he made

HEARD Has FUNERAL. SERMON.
The Queer Freak of an Eccentric
Individual.

In the Southbury cemetery stands a
monument erected years ago to resident
of the town named Mitchell. Not only
was it erected to him, but by him, for he
had no intention of leaving this world
without making all arrangements in which
he felt he might be interested. says the
Boston Transcript. 1t was a handsome
monument for those days, for Mr. Mitchell
had money enough to match his eecentrici-
ties, but he wasn't contented with the plain
marble.
He went to work on it himself and
adorned it with an outstretched hand
grapeyines and other devices. Then he
wanted to add a picture of HIMSELF but he
had to get a sculptor to do that part of the
work, tor obvious reasons. About that
time Lorenzo Dow, the famous eccentric,
paid visit to Southbury. and what fol-
lowed is cherished as village tradition.
Mr.. Dow was engaged by Mr.. Mitchell
to preach his funeral sermon. Mitchell
wanted to enjoy an unusual luxury, and to
make the scene all the more realistic he had
grave dug beside his monument in White
Oak cemetery. The sermon was preached
at the rising of the day star. but one part Of
the programme was omitted. The story
goes that Mitchell had set his heart upon
lying in his coffin at the bottom of the grave
while Lorenzo Dow was speaking, but ne
gave that up because somebody told him
that if he once got into his coffin the earth
would be thrown in upon him.
On the night before the premature fun
cral some mischief-maker smcared with tar
the lower part at Mitehell's face on the
monument Hog bristles stuck in literally
but recklessly made sort of beard, hir-
suite adOrnment in disrepute in those times,
but INDUCED in by both Dow and Mitchell.
But the trick was discovered in time, the
monument was cleaned and the services
took place at the hour appointed. Crowds
of people came to see and hear, and the
preachers address was wanting in none of
the energy he threw into everything he did.
1t was a big day for Mitchell and all the
rest of Southbury

DON'T Appear Too Civil.


For one thing. the American. before he
began to fashion himself after foreign
models, was more ceremonious and polite
in manner than he permits himself to be at
present. The word sir" for example,
was used very commonly, as the French use
monsieur whereas now. to say Yes,
sir" and No. SIR" instead of the curt
British Yes" and No" is recognized as a
badge of social inferiority. Let us all,
therefore, beware of appearing too civil,
remembering that in these matters virtue
misplaced is no better than vice.

MARQUETTE, Mich, Jan. 2s.-Judge
G. b. Grant was asked yesterday if he
credited the stories told about the brothels
of the lumber and mining camps in the
Northern Peninsula. He answered that
he sentenced the eight girls from Menomo-
nee county referred to in the papers, and
that their stories are substantially correct,
although the reports may, in some in
stances. have been exaggerated:
Il have carefully questioned the inmates of
these dens brought before me, and am sat
isfied that the public knows not a tithe of the
1niquity carried on in Them, said the judge.
II traced MANY crimes directly to these
Places and determined to see what force
there was in the law, and to sweep them out
of my circuit. In McnOmonee eleven persons
from one den were brought before me-two
men and nine women. Minnie Pine. whose
story has in part become public, was one OF the
lot, and told me her history. Her father was
for twenty years the chief of police in Ell
mira, N, Y, and was very estimable man,
| as have since ascertained. / wrote to her
! uncle, and received IN reply long letter, de-
failing the history of the girl and
CoRRoBoRATING her STORY
in every respect, her uncle having S., 900 in
vested for her. She was inveigled into this
den where the officers foGnd her, fro.r Chi
C. go. She tried to get word to ner uncle, but
her letters were destroyed. She finally got
word to an officer, or a pretended officer, of
Florence county, Wis. who came TO the den
and said he could do nothing for her. She
afterwards jumped from a window in the
| night and took the road towards Common
wealth. but was pursued by the keeper, over
taken, brought back and beaten. The keeper
finally promised to take her and another girl
back to Chicago, but took them to Marinette,
Wis, and sold them to the keeper of house
there for S25 apiece. Such, in brief, was her
story, and have no doubt of its truth. Sew
eral of the other girls had similar expert
ences to relate. After correspondence with
her uncle's attorney and after seeiug her in
the Detroit house of correction / persuaded
her uncle to take her home, and then petit
toned the governor IN self for her pardon,
which he granted, to take effect Feb. l. that
being as seon as she could be removed, on
account of Sickness -
Judge Grant said he had dealt with
forty or more cases and that the situation
was not now as bad as it had beeu.
